The plate of vegetable tsukemen is filled with more than noodles. Diners’ accounts describe a generous selection and portion of vegetables, led by grilled varieties and accompanied by raw and stir-fried vegetables. Try them on their own first, then dip them into the broth and enjoy them with the noodles. Some diners have praised the broth’s richness, as though it had absorbed the vegetables’ sweetness, and the way that sweetness pairs with the noodles. Vegetables take centre stage, while the dish still offers the satisfying feel of tsukemen, or dipping noodles.

Some reports say the vegetable tsukemen comes with a smaller portion of noodles, making it an appealing choice for those who want plenty of vegetables or would prefer fewer noodles. Larger portions are also an option, so you can choose according to your appetite. Diners have noted a difference between the soy sauce and salt broths: choose the sweeter soy sauce version or the saltier one, depending on your preference.

Other options include soy sauce ramen with a seasoned egg and tomato tantanmen. One diner described the tomato tantanmen’s mildly spicy soup as a good match for its pleasantly chewy noodles, adding that the cherry tomatoes blended into the soup as they warmed. Preparing the vegetable tsukemen may take some time, so allow for a little extra time when you visit.
